‘This is a crazy, unjust attack’: Pink Floyd re-form to support Ukraine

Exclusive: Disgusted by the Russian invasion, David Gilmour speaks about band’s first brand new song in 28 years, which samples a Ukrainian musician now on the front line – and expresses ‘disappointment’ in Roger Waters

Hasn’t Ukraine suffered enough?

 

[GornikDaze]

Can’t see how anyone can argue the sentiment behind this - hopefully it raises a lot of money

How good were Pink Floyd????!!!

I suppose if you stick around on here long enough.......

Dear lord haven't the Ukranians suffered enough without this ...

 

[talkativesprout]

Dined out on Brick in the wall longer than Geldof has on I don't like Mondays...and that takes some f-ing doing

You can't be serious about that, mate.

They've sold hundreds of millions of albums and made hundreds of millions of pounds for decades before and decades after The Wall LP, which wasn't even their best or most famous.

Just because it's the only song you know doesn't mean they are "Dining out" on it, bloody hell.

Ignorance is bliss ;)

Crikey, what a staggeringly stupid and ill-informed comment. That track was on their last proper album and they had already been the biggest band on the planet for many years by that point.

Forget the Scissor Sisters mate, let’s get some original disco vibes going ;-)

I wasn’t even a Pink Floyd fan until someone played me Comfortably Numb when I was stoned in 1988. It blew me away completely and I’d still have it as one of my favourite tracks of all time.

Then again is Gilmour using Ukraine to have a pretty big dig at Waters ?

(not that I really care :))

Not sure. All I read was his response to Waters not removing the Floyd back catalogue from Spotify in Russia.

I got into them on blue moon. Somebody once posted saying Amazon had a collection of every studio album for an unbelievable price. Clearly a mistake. So I clicked on it and downloaded. Started listening and loved the vast majority of it. Went to see Roger Waters - The Wall at the arena in town. Fucking excellent.
